EcoFlow RIVER 3 Plus vs Anker SOLIX C300

A starter comparison that keeps unknown fields visible and uses the same runtime assumptions for both stations.

Anker SOLIX C300 portable power station

Anker SOLIX C300

288 Wh, 300 W AC output.

Confidence: verified. Last verified: 2026-06-24.

Capacity

Capacity: C300 is higher by 2 Wh.

AC Output

AC output: RIVER 3 Plus is higher by 300 W.

Solar Input

Solar input: RIVER 3 Plus is higher by 120 W.

The 60 W runtime estimate assumes AC output, 85% conversion efficiency, and 10% battery reserve. It is a sanity check, not a lab-tested result.

Runtime Examples

Same assumptions on both sides: AC output, 85% efficiency, 10% reserve, healthy battery, and steady load.

Planning Watch-Outs

These checks explain where the comparison is strong and where it still needs better source coverage.

  • 5 of 5 high-impact comparison fields are filled on both sides.
  • C300 has the larger nominal battery capacity, but usable Wh still depends on reserve, efficiency, temperature, and battery age.
  • C300 is lighter in the tracked weight data, which matters if the station is moved often.
  • RIVER 3 Plus has the higher tracked solar input, assuming compatible panels and charge-voltage limits.
